A:MomSource Network is a resource for those people who are seeking work-life blend. We know that when a woman takes a 2-3 year career break that she will sacrifice 30% of her lifetime earnings so we created a platform that offers women tools and resources they can use during a career pause, during a career pivot and on their journey to re-entry. The 3 components of MomSource Network are: 1. Continuing Education 2. Expert and Peer Advice 3. Access to flexible employment.

A:The process works like this:
1. Join the Network at www.momsourcenetwork.com/join
2. Create a profile, fill out a brief questionnaire, upload your resume and choose a roadmap that is best for you. We offer options for those working full-time who want to transition, those who are taking a career pause, people who are interesting in making a career pivot and options for those who are actively planning to return to work immediately.
3. Follow your roadmap and take advantage of our expert mentors, register for some online training and check out our flexible employment options.

BONUS: Check out our premium membership for $89 per year to take advantage of exclusive tools including online courses, access to flexible work options and awesome discounts.

A: Our free membership allows you to create a profile, take advantage of MomSource Perks and to access expert content. Premium members also have access to all those same things and to a catalog of continuing education courses and exclusive flexible employment options. Review the detailed list of Membership Benefits.

A: Mentors are professionals in their profession and topical experts. They have years of experience and proven and verified records of success. Mentors are here to compliment the content MomSource Network provides in the form of webinars, trainings and tracks.

Our mentors are also trained and versed in the unique needs of Moms, Females and Flexible Employment.

A: MomSource Network wants to provide the best resources, support and value to all of its members. If we include the value and services of all the mentors, the monthly price would be much more. We found the balance in offering free, premium and add-on services to meet the diverse needs of our network.

A: MomSource was founded out of a need that we felt as mothers, however, we help all candidates that need tools to find their ideal work-life blend. Being a mom is absolutely NOT a requirement. We work with plenty of incredible, smart, talented men, women, retirees and graduates.

A: Certainly NOT. We are interested in finding long-term opportunities for our candidates. Our focus is on flexible full-time, permanent part-time, telecommute and job-shared opportunities. We do occasionally do short-term positions and freelance opportunities.

A: We have a dedicated team who are focused exclusively on networking with potential employers and teaching the value of flexibility. We are entrenched in our communities as business leaders and are always selling the value of the incredible talent that is represented by our network.

A: Through referral. We believe candidates are our best advocate and the best judge of character. We intentionally focus our recruiting efforts on utilizing the power of our existing networks. We want you to tell a professional, educated, qualified candidates that you know about us. We don’t want to post ads on craigslist.

A: Our services are designed to help candidates who are seeking flexibility. While founded from a need experienced by many moms, we absolutely can help men, recent graduates, retirees and other candidates interested in the value of flexible employment. Being a mom is not a requirement.

A: YES! It is imperative to allow both MomSource and potential employers to understand your strengths and skill sets. It also helps us create continuing education and networking opportunities that are right for you.

A: Yes. There are plenty of great candidates who are interested in returning to work after a long absence. We can put you on the “Returner Road” and offer some great suggestions on how to begin your journey back into the workforce. Congratulations and we’re proud of you!

A: While we are always encouraging employers to consider benefits for flexible team members, it is a work in progress. Many employers do not offer insurance or retirement to candidates that do not work full-time in the office. We will specify in the system the hours, pay and if benefits are being offered.

A: We have both a free and a premium option. Premium members pay $9 per month or realize additional savings by subscribing for $89 per year. This fee goes to support the costs associated with your consultation as well support everything MomSource is doing to change the way Americans work.

A: No. We only share your resume with employers after you have expressed interest in the position via the Employment Opportunity email. We do not contact your previous employers or references without your explicit consent.

A: Yes. We hope to be in 20 cities by 2020. Our Directors of Market Development and Managing Partners are educated, professionals who know their communities better than anyone else. They believe in the value of flexible employment and have a passion for helping their candidates find a “perfect” position for their family. If you know a person in XYZ city that should join our team as the Director of Market Development then tell them to email visit our “MomSource Your City” tab.

A: We deserve more than the all or nothing career choice that many people feel that they are forced make. Its our mission to make the world an easier place for people to find the balance to be successful personally and professionally. Thank you.
